This makes me 😭
UPDATE: Thanks @nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de for this update: The issue has now been commented on and was closed by the maintainer, where they explained why those blocks would be nonsense. But it appears the OP wants to still talk with maintainer privately about it.
What do you consider to be a good privacy focused email solution that allows anonymity?

important to emphasize here that email is inherently not very private. Proton is one of the best email providers for privacy, but for things you really need to be private (eg organizing protests in less-than-friendly countries) you shouldn’t use email at all.

yes I agree with you lol just trying to be extra clear for people who might be confused
Does proton do anything other than encrypting the email file? TLS should be enough to encrypt the transfer.

Okey, that sounds super nice. I might just switch over my email as well to them, not just use them for their calendar.
Nope. Refer the links below.

If you look at what data they handed over you’ll realize this is a positive thing. You have verifiable proof that the contents of your mails is private, and you’re calling it a negative thing that they have your IP address??
Do you have articles showing Tutanota refusing to do the same?
I am not here to entertain Whataboutery. I am not a shill for Tuta Mail and will abandon it as well if it does the same thing. I don’t rely on e-mail for communications. I only suggested Tuta Mail in the other thread because it is the least worst of them all.

I would love to know this too ☺️
Is addy.io any good? I’ve poked around a bit but not investigated deeply
As a paying customer, it’s good if you want a burner email address that forwards to your actual email address. Not sure if they’re offering full blown mailing servers now, though. Pretty much does what I need it to do, personally.

Yeah, that’s also what I use it for. Discovered that my ProtonMail subscription came with SimpleLogin now, but its UI/extension is kind of annoying to use compared to AnnonAddy (Addy.io now, I guess), so I kept paying for it. Was mostly pointing out that Addy.io isn’t a mail service, they’re a mail forwarding service (unless that’s changed since they became Addy.io).
That’s basically all I want as a mail edge

I am not clicking that.
I clicked for you. From the website:

I just couldn’t say my email out loud.
“Wait, what did you say?!”
“It’s private!”
“I’m calling the police”
Try Tuta Mail
Germany vs Switzerland eh?
